KEITH URBAN - ‘I DO THE SAME THINGS I DID WHEN WE WERE DATING!'

The country music crooner opens up about fatherhood, making it big and the secret to his marriage with Nicole

On your new album, The Speed Of Now Part 1, you talk about things like drinking too much and bad relationships. But you don’t have issues with either of those now...

I don’t just write about my life now. That would be a limiting kind of thing. I write about my entire life – there are infinite things to write about.

You left school at 15 to pursue music. Any regrets?

No. I would’ve left sooner if I could have [laughs]. I wasn’t very good at school. I was playing my guitar all the time and I was very distracted.

Did you ever imagine you’d have this amazing career?

I didn’t think that far ahead. I just wanted to be playing all the time. I knew that this was my calling.

How would you feel if your daughters Sunday or Faith asked to leave school at 15?

I don’t know [laughs], I’ll let you know if that happens!

How have they been doing with virtual school during lockdown?
